Centene To Offer Health Insurance Marketplace Coverage In All 40 Missouri Counties Next Year

Centene has announced that it will offer health insurance marketplace coverage in all 40 Missouri counties in 2018. Some counties in the state were at risk for not having a marketplace insurer for next year, but all counties will now have at least one option. Centene's move follows a recent trend of insurers stepping in to cover counties throughout the country that face a similar threat in 2018.

Centene is a large publicly-traded company and a leading multi-line health care enterprise that serves as a major intermediary for both government-sponsored and privately-insured health care programs . . .
